How Sewage Backup Removal Works in Cayce
Children, older adults, pregnant people and anyone with a weak immune system face more risk. They should stay away from the wet area, and a doctor can answer questions about symptoms.
-
Pump out the standing sewage
Hoses carry the sewage to a proper disposal point. It never goes to a storm drain, a yard or a neighbor's property.
-
Map where the sewage went
A moisture meter shows how far the sewage wicked into walls and subfloors. The reading often reaches past what the eye can see.
-
Cut out and haul away what soaked
Insulation that touched sewage cannot be dried and reused. It goes into heavy bags and out of the house.
-
Sanitize, dry and verify
Concrete, tile and framing get scrubbed with a cleaner, then treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Cleaning comes before drying, because drying alone leaves germs behind.

The typical home in the ZIP codes around Cayce was built in the 1960s. Orangeburg, a sewer pipe made of pressed fiber, went into some homes of this era. It softens over time, and a plumber's camera can spot a squeezed section.

Sewage Backup Removal Questions in Cayce
Who do I call in Lexington County about a blocked sewer main?
The city or county sewer department looks after the public main. If your plumber finds the stoppage out in the street, call the department to report it.
Can renters in Cayce call for sewage removal?
A tenant can report the problem and call for help, but the landlord usually approves work on the building. Tell the landlord first and photograph your own belongings.
Can a backup damage a Cayce furnace or water heater?
It can if the water reaches the burner area, the ducts or the controls. Tell the crew what sits in the wet area, and have the heating or plumbing trade check the equipment.

Yes. Hard surfaces are scrubbed and treated with an EPA-registered disinfectant, then dried with LGR dehumidifiers and air movers.
Why does my Cayce basement floor drain smell like sewage?
